Author Bio: Dietrich Bonhoeffer
Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906–1945), the son of a famous German psychiatrist, studied in Berlin and New York City. He left the safety of America to return to Germany and continue his public repudiation of the Nazis, which led to his arrest in 1943. Linked to the group of conspirators whose attempted assassination of Hitler failed, he was hanged in April 1945.
